−1073807273 The specified session is not currently mapped.
−1073807271 A previous response is still pending, causing a multiple query error.
−1073807265 No listeners condition is detected (both NRFD and NDAC are deasserted).
−1073807264 The interface associated with this session is not currently the controller in charge.
−1073807263 The interface associated with this session is not the system controller.

−1073807252 An overrun error occurred during transfer. A character was not read from the hardware before the next character arrived.
−1073807250 The path from trigSrc to trigDest is not currently mapped.
−1073807248 The specified offset is not properly aligned for the access width of the operation.
−1073807247 A specified user buffer is not valid or cannot be accessed for the required size.
